The Buff

The Buff presents: Bolton Wanderers' Fixturemas or Fixturepalooza?

After a few quiet weeks at Bolton Wanderers, The Buff finds itself positively overflowing with news in an episode some people are calling "one of the best they have done this week".

Marc Iles and Henry Hewitt once again disassemble the week's headlines in The Bolton News - including some stories that haven't even hit the printers yet - as the club gets back to work on the training ground once again.

What's the mood like at BWFC? 

Did Ian Evatt really consider his position in the off-season?

Would Wanderers consider moving on club captain Ricardo Santos?

And is Henry actually a creature of the night?

The answer to these questions, and plenty more, can be found in our latest podcast offering which is completely free to listen to, either via The Bolton News website or any major platforms.

Finding Rico and moving on at Bolton Wanderers

FORGET the Euros - there's plenty to talk about at Bolton Wanderers. No, really, there is...

Marc Iles and Henry Hewitt are back to bring you a podcast episode packed with news, gossip and headlines to keep you right up to date with everything going on at the Toughsheet Stadium.

It has been a sad week at Bolton, with the passing of club legend Tommy Banks. We speak to his biographer, Ian Seddon, and Nat Lofthouse's biographer, Matt Clough, about his legacy at the club and why he was such a huge character in one of Wanderers' most successful sides.

We also have a new signing - Chris Forino - which has proved surprisingly hard to say and spell for Marc, who is now having therapy after a nightmare Friday evening announcement.

What does Forino's arrival mean for the other defenders in the squad, and what positions are next? We discuss it all.

Italian giants Fiorentina will visit Bolton next month for a friendly, and we get the inside scoop in interviews with Nathan Blake, Jon Dadi Bodvarsson and the new Bolton Wanderers Ladies set-up.

New signing, top friendly and a tribute to 'our Tommy'

WELCOME to another episode of The Buff Podcast, where the absence of news at Bolton Wanderers just gives us something else to talk about!

Marc Iles and Henry Hewitt are back again for a deep dive into the week’s headlines in The Bolton News and an extensive chat about everything happening around the club (which isn’t a lot, as it turns out) as the summer transfer window opens and clubs can finally do some deals.

How many signings do Bolton Wanderers need to make this summer?

Has Ian Evatt had to change direction on transfers after extra board backing?

Does the Bolton boss stick or twist on his existing squad?

Those questions, and many more are debated, along with a look ahead at the release of the new kits, whether there is anything to worry about with Dion Charles’s knee injury, how Josh Sheehan fits in with Wales’s future and if Bolton really need the Bristol Street Motors Trophy next season.

We read out your emails – which are supplying some cracking content at the moment, by the way – and complete our review of the Wanderers squad with a close look at the strikers.

Gavin McCann/Gavin McCan’t is back again too, and we have another cryptic clue which could earn one lucky listener one of our bespoke Buff mugs.
